The "Pathway to Citizenship" refers to the legal process that allows non-citizens to become citizens of a country. This process typically involves several steps, including obtaining a visa, maintaining residency for a specific period, and demonstrating good moral character. Applicants may also need to pass a citizenship test and interview. In the United States, for example, the pathway often starts with a green card, which grants permanent residency. After fulfilling residency requirements, individuals can apply for citizenship through naturalization, which includes submitting an application and attending a ceremony to take the Oath of Allegiance.
